music's Options

hola forums

Im a freelance composer, and I like to write for fun and for small projects. My stuff isnt that good, but I thought I would share it with you. I've been writing for a long time and currently am in my last year of music, about to head into my pre-PHD stuff for marimba performance.

anyways, I hope you guys enjoy.

I knew what you meant (I know what a tone of a sound is), but people sling that around all the time, so you actually werent as specific as you thought. As far as your tip, thanks, but Im well aware of the mechanics of audio technology (you come off a little pretentious, btw, although I know you probably dont mean it that way). I use Finale 2009 for my scoring, and once that is done I edit the midi file in Cubase 5, and I use whatever specific sound Id like. As far as a nice set of VST, Its moreso up to what I want my piece to sound like, so if it sounds pretty ballsy I usually want it to say that way hah. So as far as "upgrading" goes, Im pretty recent to be honest. I have VSTs ranging from EWQLSO to stuff like Pro-53; Its just my prerogative to use it actually.

Making music better isnt about the type of sound you use, its about how you use the sound, no matter what it is. I usually hear amazing midi with a non-professional VST sound great rather than one with Komplete sounds, because the writer feels that since he has a professional collection of samples that his piece will sound fantastic.

Just because I have a few posts does not mean I am un-informed or uneducated

This isnt aimed at you, by the way, its just a standard post to anyone who wants some standard advice or feedback.

This is exactly why my first post said:

To those of you who would not listen to the above music because the member is new to RRR, think again.

I'm glad you chose to stop by R3 and deliver on the "music's". XD
Oh, and Adriantepes doesn't really mean to be pretentious, he's just a musician as well (and from my experience most musicians are very particular and always have an opinion - which is good). =D
